92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Notes of ripe pear and bright lemon have just a touch of honeysuckle on the nose. On the palate of this medium-sweet wine, the flavors intensify. The lemon gets zestier, and with residual sweetness the peach and pear become rounder and richer. Yet despite the sweetness, this wine stays balanced and sprightly with citrus brightness.(AI)" (06/2019) K&L Notes: An exotically profiled Alsatian Gewürztraminer, Charles Baur sources the Fronenberg vineyard for this bottling with is a single east-facing plot with calcareous soils.

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Initial Damask rose notes on the nose are filled out with ripe peach scents, with just a little air. The palate then majors on lemon-tempered, fresh and bottled peach fruit. This is medium sweet and totally juicy but comes with a welcome lemon fillip on the long intense finish.(AK)" (11/2018)

92 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "From the Clos des Capucins, the 2017 Alsace Gewurztraminer Cuvée Théo is clear, fresh and flinty on the nose. Rich, intense and structured on the palate, this is a powerful, dense and pretty persistent Gewurtz that was harvested around mid-October. Tasted October 2018. (SR)" (10/2018) John Gilman: "The Gewurztraminer 'Cuvée Théo' from Domaine Weinbach hails from a special plot in the Clos des Capucins which is planted on sandy soil, littered with granitic pebbles. This plot ripens earlier than much of the rest ...Read More »

Jancis Robinson: "Benchmark spicy Gewürz aroma and delicate notes of rose petals. Creamy and seductive. Tastes off-dry and yet fresh, with a sour, pear-fruit flavour adding freshness. 16.5/20 points. (JH)" (01/2019) K&L Notes: Ian D'Agata writes: "Catherine Faller's eldest son Edy has now come back to the estate for good, after having lived in Brazil for the past 10 years. He will be taking care of the commercial aspects while his younger brother Theo will follow the vines. Ghislain Berthioy, Laurence Faller’s assistant winemaker for many years, will c...Read More »

From the winery: "Gewürztraminer is dicult to capture, on the vine it will go om pitch perfect to over-ripe in a number of hours. As wine, it has an amazingly wide breadth of characteristics that it can display, it can be spice driven, floral, sweet, bone chillingly dry, clear, orange or pink. When it is done well it is a thing of rare, fleeting beauty that will last decades, much like the memory of a beautiful woman met once and disappeared. Fruit was 100% destemmed and cold soaked on skins for 30 hours to retain color and capture spice. Sent to tank ...Read More »

Winery notes: Extravagant notes of honey, dried apricots, orange marmalade, jasmine, and clove spice dominate the aromatics of this wine.

91 points Wine Enthusiast: "Orange blossom, lime pith, candied citrus and a touch of flint show on the focused nose of this wine. It's quite racy and grippy on the sip, where orange zest and julienned Pink Lady apple flavors dominate. (MK)" (10/2018) Connoisseurs Guide: "This is not the first time that this producer has come up with an expressive, distinctively varietal dry Gewürztraminer, and the new 2017 version ranks with the winery’s best to date. It is a rich and solidly built offering that speaks strongly to spice while teasing with suggestions o...Read More »

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Very ripe notes of pear and peach dominate the nose, while the palate brims with freshness. The concentrated body has texture from the zestiness but also that background of ripe richness. It finishes completely dry, with a streak of mandarin on the long finish. (AI)" (08/2018) John Gilman: "The 2016 Gewurztraminer from Maison Trimbach is a lovely example of this varietal in today’s age of global warming. The wine has been fermented quite dry, but consequently comes in at fourteen percent octane, but still retains good precis...Read More »

At Bedrock, they embrace uninoculated fermentations, native malolactic fermentation and the use of whole clusters in fermentation, minimal handling, rarely or never fine, avoid additions of things like water and tartaric acid, and would rather use no oak than cheap oak. Sounds good! Winery note: "After six years of farming, this 1940s-planted vineyard brought back from multiple years of neglect it is now firing on all cylinders. This small, 2.5-acre parcel is planted high above the town of Sonoma in the southeast flank of the Moon Mountain AVA on the S...Read More »

91 points James Suckling: " Bright and supple at the same time. This gewurztraminer is light years removed from the sweet showgirl wines that dominate the market. The lychee and Turkish-delight character of the grape only shows at the finish. Drink now or in 2019 and 2020. " (05/2018) 91 points Vinous: "Bright straw-gold. Delicate but enticing aromas of pineapple, marzipan, sweet spices and grapefruit nectar, plus a touch of smoky grilled nuts that complements rather than overwhelms the wine. Suave and complex, this showcases lovely balance and a capt...Read More »

Wine Enthusiast: "Fresh and floral aromas of lime blossom, white peach flesh and a hint of chalk are reminiscent of lemon-lime soda pop on the nose of this bottling. The sip is energetic, with acid and a tension that extends into the finish, showing lime, honeydew and white-flower flavors." (08/2018)
